  • Mornin from the Newb..........

    Well, you guys have already changed my mind and I just got here...... I listed my Grendel on Vaguntrader.com a couple days ago, and was refered here by a Grendel member......... After snooping around a bit I've decided to keep the Grendel and sell a FAL. I like the FAL, rifle-wise, but I think the Grendel is a better caliber than the 308, so Grendel it is. A FAL in 6.5 would be awsome....... Hmmm.

    Anyway, I guess you guys are stuck with me for a while. Now I'm thinkin I shouldn.t have sold the virgin brass I had with the rifle..... Oh well.

    Ok, on to harrasing the groundhogs and coyotes......

        I'm glad to see you finally got on. That sucks that you sold. That brass but it worked out well for me! Since you decided to keep the rifle I will sell it back if you really want it. This site has good folks and lots of info so enjoy.

            A lot of good folks here to help in anyway possible. Good choice on the Grendel but I'm a little bias, love the round and the AR platform. Welcome to the Horde

              Welcome. What's the breakdown of your Grendel? Barrel length, etc.

                    I appreciate the offer, but a deal's a deal. That's what I get for changin' my mind. No worries - still leaves me with a little over 100 pieces of brass / ammo. Thanks for be info on the site - need to scrounge around and see why I can dig up. I'm also really thinkin hard on dragging one of those Argentine Mauser actions out and build a bolt gun in 6.5 - that's really eatin at me now......

                      I have a Bushmaster lower with an Alexander Arms Overwatch (24" bbl) upper. The previous owner was a bench rest shooter that didn't like the recoil spring noise. He did have a trigger over travel screw installed in the selector - works very well. I swapped the factory forearm with a Yankee Hill quad rail, added a 20x Super Sniper scope and then camo'd the rifle with Duracoat. Also added a flashier. I'll see if I can post a pic
